A United Israel: Two States, One Country
The ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine has cost countless civilian lives and threatens global stability. The current war, driven by Benjamin Netanyahu’s right-wing government, has blurred the line between Hamas and the Palestinian people, creating conditions of genocide and ethnic cleansing. The United States, by providing weapons, technology, and contractors, bears a moral responsibility to push for peace and end support for offensive actions.
Key Principles
- End U.S. Support for Genocide: Suspend the flow of American weapons, technology, and contractors to Israel until its government commits to genuine peace talks.
- Two States, One Country: Advance a framework where Israel and Palestine exist as two distinct states under one federal system—what I call a United Israel.
- Foundation in Religious Freedom: The constitution of a United Israel must guarantee freedom of religion, ensuring all faiths can worship without fear of persecution. This principle draws from timeless ideas embraced by leaders like Thomas Jefferson and James Madison.
- Shared Security and Growth: A unified structure would strengthen security, open economic opportunities, guarantee freedom of movement, and end the civil war that destabilizes not only the Middle East but also democratic societies worldwide.
- Modernized Two-State Solution: Instead of abandoning the two-state vision, reinvent it—transforming it into a united framework that respects sovereignty while fostering unity.
A United Israel rooted in religious freedom and coexistence offers the only sustainable path to peace. It provides hope not only for Israelis and Palestinians but also for a world threatened by endless war. By standing against genocide and investing in unity, America can help lead the way toward freedom, security, and dignity for all.
Freedom through unity. Freedom through a United Israel.
